+wouterdb Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 I loaded a pocket query to my Garmin Oregon 450. But when I turn my GPS on, only the parking coordinates and waypoints show up. No caches.... very annoying especially when I'm far away from home.... Any ideas? Quote
+Chief301 Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 Are you looking for them under Waypoints or under the Geocaches icon? Quote
+Gitchee-Gummee Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 Perhaps you loaded the child waypoints (wpt.GPX file) and forgot to load the geocaches (.GPX file)? There are usually two GPX files after you unzip the downloaded file (if you have to unzip it at all). Quote

Delete the GPX files, start the unit, shut it down, and recopy the files. Better yet, put your GPX files on the mini-SD card. (You may have to create a directory, it should be the same the one the file was originally on.) If you do not have a computer available, you can take out the card, start the unit, shut it down, and replace the card. Quote
